Show Shame! As we find t-aie to ojen our eastern exchanges queer developments develop-ments are discovered, as reported from this city by telegraph. Would it be believed that Oscar G: Sawyer, that meek-eyed, mild-mannered and gazelle-formed gazelle-formed son of aminister, and special representative of the New York Herald, Her-ald, coold"go back on" judge Hawley? But it is so, and it goes far to sustain the theological dogma of man's natural depravity. After having landed the immaculate opinions of the judge, he now accuses him of being a Trumbull man, consequently opposed to President Presi-dent Grant; and the vindictive young man lets drive at the Associate Justice with a view of having him removed. We are sad, not because a bohemian acts in consonance with the worst instincts in-stincts of his class, but that the gentle judge should be exposed to such underhand under-hand back-thrusts, sent over the wires during the snow blockade. The tears fall dripping on the sheet and blind the editorial eye; but we hope sav-; agely, furiously that Sawyer may need a habeas eorjms and his counsel have to apply to the judge for it? That's all! Baskin's contempt of court wouldn't be a circumstance to it. |
